Every single bloody country ever uses an eagle, why would we? Our national bird, along with New Zealand's kiwi bird are fantastically iconic. Eagles represent needless aggression and empire building, which is not what I think this country is about.

The actual national bird of the U.S was a turkey.
This is because a turkey shows no fear and goes into a fight not giving a fuck. They have balls.
The bald eagle is actually a scavenger, a coward that preys on little animals and flees combats, rather than fighting.
With that said, an emu is more badass than any bird, it don't need to fly and is the only bird to win a war.

Cassowary are way WAY more fucking scary than emus
In his book "Living Birds of the World" from 1958, ornithologist Thomas E. Gilliard wrote:
"The inner or second of the three toes is fitted with a long, straight, murderous nail which can sever an arm or eviscerate an abdomen with ease. There are many records of natives being killed by this bird

wedge tail would fuckin smash an american bald eagle easy
on the topic of eagles: here's the memorial of the Australian 2nd Division that was erected in 1925 in Mont St Quentin, France (officially unveiled Marshal Ferdinand Foch, Supreme Allied Commander in 1918). It's an AIF soldier bayoneting the fuck out of some pussy faggot German eagle.
Then in WW2 when the Huns came back some autistic German individual couldn't handle the bayo-anter got mad and destroyed it.
